Fetal and obstetrics manifestations of mitochondrial diseases

Journal of Translational Medicine
AbstractDuring embryonic and neonatal development, mitochondria have essential effects on metabolic and energetic regulation, shaping cell fate decisions and leading to significant short- and long-term effects on embryonic and offspring health. Therefore, perturbation on mitochondrial function can have a pathological effect on pregnancy. Several shreds

Beyond liver cancer, more application scenarios for alpha-fetoprotein in clinical practice

Frontiers in Oncology, 2023
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a commonly used clinical biomarker. Before 1970, the two-way agar diffusion method was mainly used, and the specificity of AFP in the diagnosis of primary liver cancer was satisfactory. However, its positivity rate was not very

SARS-CoV-2 Placentitis Associated With B.1.617.2 (Delta) Variant and Fetal Distress or Demise

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2022
There is limited information on the specific impact of maternal infection with the SARS-CoV-2 B.1.617.2 (delta) variant on pregnancy outcomes. We present 2 cases of intrauterine fetal demise and 1 case of severe fetal distress in the setting of maternal ...

A Novel Deep Learning Technique for Morphology Preserved Fetal ECG Extraction from Mother ECG using 1D-CycleGAN [PDF]

Expert Systems with Applications, Volume 235, 2024, 121196, ISSN 0957-4174, 2023
Monitoring the electrical pulse of fetal heart through a non-invasive fetal electrocardiogram (fECG) can easily detect abnormalities in the developing heart to significantly reduce the infant mortality rate and post-natal complications. Due to the overlapping of maternal and fetal R-peaks, the low amplitude of the fECG, systematic and ambient noises ...
